Russians bombed US base in Syria

Massive:
Russians bomb US base in Syria

Various
news outlets have confirmed reports that last month, Russian
air-forces destroyed a US and UK military base in Syria. Within
moments of the first bombing run, US liaison offices contacted
their Russian counterparts, warning them that in fact they had hit
a US run installation. Russian air-forces responded by
flying a second sortie and hitting the same facility again.

reports:

According
to The Wall Street Journal, a month ago, the Russian air-forces
destroyed a top-secret military facility, used by Special Forces of
the USA and the UK in Syria. The Government and military in all
three countries, according to the newspaper, ignore this fact.

On
June 16 Russian planes in Syria hit a remote military installation
at "Al-Tanf" in the south-east of the country. As the
publication of The Wall Street Journal, citing military sources
states, the aim was a secret base of the US and the UK. Coincidence
or not, but the strike occured after the base was left by the 20
people of the UK military personnel.

The
US military states, that some cluster bombs were dropped on the
base. After that, the representatives of the US Central Command in
Qatar called Russian colleagues in Latakia, explaining that the
facility that was bombed is a part of the American infrastructure.
But a second blow was delivered some 30 minutes after this.

Katehon
experts comment on this:

"US
is known for its official support of the so called "moderate
opposition" and the secret support of the ISIS extremist
group. US uses its bases not to fight terrorism as they claim, but
to overthrow Assad’s Government. The US-UK base has been created
illegally and as a violation of both the sovereignty of Syria and
International Law."

The
Wall Street Journal reports:

An
outpost near the Jordanian border that is used by U.S. and British
special forces was hit by the airstrikes last month

When
Russian aircraft bombed a remote garrison in southeastern Syria
last month, alarm bells sounded at the Pentagon and the Ministry of
Defense in London.

The
Russians weren’t bombarding a run-of-the-mill rebel outpost,
according to U.S. officials. Their target was a secret base of
operations for elite American and British forces. In fact, a
contingent of about 20 British special forces had pulled out of the
garrison 24 hours earlier. British officials declined to comment.

U.S.
military and intelligence officials say the previously unreported
close call for Western forces on June 16, and a subsequent Russian
strike on a site linked to the Central Intelligence Agency, were
part of a campaign by Moscow to pressure the Obama administration
to agree to closer cooperation in the skies over Syria.

Twice
Targeted

Russian
aircraft bombed a remote outpost in Syria used by U.S. and British
special forces in June, and then in July hit a camp housing
families of Central Intelligence Agency-backed Syrian fighters.
